Rafael Moraes Eliminates [Removed:2] on the Double Bubble

It folded to [Removed:2] in the small blind who went into the tank.

"I'm sorry, I have a genuine decision," he explained to his table before announcing that he was all in. Rafael Moraes called in the big blind and showed {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}. Maksoud turned over {a-Diamonds}{3-Spades}.

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Georgios Zisimopoulos
Georgios Zisimopoulos

Georgios Zisimopoulos raised to 28,000 from middle position and Aaron Lim called from the cutoff. On the {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{8-Spades} flop, Zisimopoulos continued with a bet of 26,000, getting a call from Lim. 'Zisimo' bet another 26,000 on the {5-Diamonds} turn, and once again Lim called.

The river was the {6-Clubs} and Zisimopoulos fired 125,000. Lim didn't call as fast as both other streets, but eventually put calling chips in. The Greek showed {Q-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} for trip queens, enough to take down the pot.
